No. These three variables are environment variables, not GRASS
variables.

For bash, add the following to ~/.grass.bashrc:

	export GRASS_WIDTH=3200
	export GRASS_HEIGHT=2400 
	export GRASS_PNGFILE=map.png

For csh/tcsh, add the following to ~/.grass.cshrc:

	setenv GRASS_WIDTH 3200
	setenv GRASS_HEIGHT 2400 
	setenv GRASS_PNGFILE map.png
